Time to Reset

Reviewed by: Jill Sheets

 

 

 


 

I was so excited to finally get the book “Time to Rest: A 21 Day Devotional to Renew Your Mind After Being Sidelined, Disappointed or Knocked off Course” by Karen Brown Tyson. The book came at the right time in my life, and it was something I needed.  I had lost my job over a year ago, so I could not wait to start to read the book and see what she had to say.

 

 

This is one of the best devotional books that I have ever read.  I love it. It was like Ms. Tyson was directly talking to me. This book is well written and easy to understand. The devotional is perfectly laid out, and you will have no problem following the book as you read it.

 

 

I loved how she talks about her personal experiences in this book to help us see the bigger picture. Along with her experiences, she has excellent advice, prayers and picks the perfect verses to go along with each one of the 21 days.

 

 

This book is a quick read, and it does not take a lot of time out of your day. You can read it in the morning, at lunch, or at bedtime. 

 

 

 

In each chapter, she has what is called the G.L.O.W, which is a fantastic touch to the book.  It stands for Grateful, Listening, Observation and Witness.  I like them all, but my favorites are grateful and witness. You say what you are grateful for and to witness to someone.

 

 

I highly recommend this book. It was what I needed, and no matter what is going on in your life, this is a great book to read.  It only takes 21 days.

Review: The Temple of the Crystal Timekeeper

Review: The Temple of the Crystal Timekeeper By Jill Sheets Summery came from  http://www.fionaingram.com/ "Continuing the adventure that ended in Britain just a short while ago, cousins Adam and Justin Sinclair, with their friend Kim Maleka, are now hunting for the third Stone of Power, one of seven mysterious stones lost centuries ago. The third stone might be located in an ancient city, hidden in the depths of the Mexican jungle. When their small plane crashes in the jungle, Adam, Justin, Kim, and James are rescued by an uncontacted tribe. James, who is wounded, must stay behind as the kids, with only a young boy, Tukum, as their guide, make their way through the dense and dangerous jungle to find the city. Riding makeshift rafts on a crocodile-infested river and evading predators are just part of this hazardous task. Of course, their old adversary Dr. Khalid is close behind as the kids press on in search of the lost city of stone gods. But he is not the

What I Need to Hear (Review of "Write Out Loud") Written by:  Jill Sheets I have been dealing with issues with my writing for some time now, so I was excited to find the book, “Write Out Loud,” by Naomi D. Nakashima, on WOW.  I looked forward to reading the book and reviewing it. She talks about procrastination, imposter syndrome, self-doubt, confidence, starting to write the first draft of your story, and overcoming and identifying fears (just to name a few). The book covered everything that I needed to hear, read, or wondered about.  I am sure you have read something from another writer and felt they were talking to you.  That is what I felt.  This is an inspirational book that gives terrific advice and is a fast read.  I recommend this book to anyone who is a writer or wants to become one.

Chit Chatting with Naomi D. Nakashima  Interviewed by: Jill Sheets   J: Tell us about yourself and how you got your start writing? N: I actually couldn’t tell you how I got my start in writing—I just always remember writing. I know there have been a couple of pivotal moments that have helped shape my career, like when I was nine years old, watching Romancing the Stone , that’s when I knew the kind of impact an author could have on people. Or in my last year at grad school, several of my professors had asked for my help with writing and publishing their books, and that’s how I learned I have a real knack for helping people tell their stories. J: Tell us about your book, "Write Out Loud," and how did you come up with the idea for the book? N: I have actually wanted to write a book that would help other people learn a bit more about how to write a book for a really long time, it’s been sitting in a pile with other works in progress for years. But then last year, as I was closing
